Anyone able to re-home a Parson's Russell?

A friend of the family unfortunately suffered a stroke a little while ago (she's currently still in hospital), and so, very sadly, her 2 year old, male, Parson's Russell is now in need of (fairly urgent) re-homing. Sad

It would be really great if anyone here, or friend of someone here, would be able to offer him a good home (if no-one is found soon, he will have to go to a dog's home). I'm hoping to get some photos to put up. He's currently located here in Warminster, and free to good home, of course. Thumbs Up

Please get in touch with any interest and I will do my best to answer (or get answers to) any questions. Thanks. Bow down Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

To answer some questions asked on the other forums, as I've been finding out more (because I don't know him directly) - I'm told he plays with the children next door, and is good with other dogs. He still has his "bits". Don't know what his experience is re livestock. Thumbs Up Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

I am not able to house the dog as we have a young lady Jack Russell but she is terrific with children and has never stepped out of line with people. She does need to be kept enclosed in the house/garden or on a lead as she really has no idea how small she is and will go for some other dogs in a heartbeat. With some dogs she plays great.

I am saying this because I have had dogs all my life but Jack Russell's are the best in my opinion. We have had 6 now through the years, and being small they eat less etc.

I hope that someone is able to take care of her.

Well, I have news...sort of good, sort of bad; I'm very sorry to disappoint anyone, but she's now decided to keep him. She had decided he had to go originally, but on hearing that there are people interested, she now realises she can't bring herself to part with him! Should she find down the line that she really can't cope, I'll let you all know again. Thumbs Up

TBH, when I think about it, I think it's the right decision - a dog is just the thing to help you recover from a stroke.

Again, sorry for any disappointment. Embarassed Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

In many ways this is a result. Good luck to them both but the companionship of the dog should help.

Cheers guys. I think the dog will indeed be a great help, so will hope it still proves practical. Thumbs Up Visiting from DISCO3.CO.UK

Hi guys,

I'm afraid I have sad news; yes, having been out of hostpital for a little while, she's now decided that Wilf has to go...urgently, as she really can't cope, and I guess wants it over with ASAP. Sad

I've now been sent some pics:

Extra info: As terriers are, he's full of beans. He has been a bit boisterous and apparently nipped a couple of people when being asked to move off the settee and may need a little training (but he is house trained) - to me this just sounds like a typical, grumpy, little Russel really! As said before, he regularly plays with the children next door and is friendly with other dogs. Loves going for walks, as one would expect.

Please let me know if there's still any interest, as it's quite urgent now as I'm told the dogs homes are full presently - it would be horrible if he has to be put down. I realise it's not an easy thing to rehome a relatively unknown dog.

Cheers
